Indian Movies - Dharam Veer

Remember these musical interludes?  And the subtitles, anyone? 









I know, there's more, there's more. Watch the movie.
Funny thing is - while I remember all the songs from watching it a hundred and ninety-nine times in the eighties (like you did too, tell the truth)...I can't really say what happened overall - it's complicated, no wonder - like why were they fighting on the pirateship at the end.  Guess I need to watch it again.  Beautiful thing, this film.  Fantastic music by Mohammed Rafi and others.

Prayer for Baby

Yoruba folk song: Bamiwo 
Vocals by Ranti 
Accompaniment by Cobhams 

Lyrics and translation:

Ba mi wo o l'awoye 
K'o ma se ba mi l'oruko je
Omo eyi ti o fi fun mi o 
K'o ma se d'agbaya l'aye o 
K'o ma se d'oku mo mi l'owo 
Ba mi wo o l'awoye 
K'o ma se d'agbaya l'aye o 

Help me watch/nurse him/her to good/glory/greatness 

May he not ruin my name 

This child that you gave me 

May he not become a foolish adult in life 

May he not become a corpse in my hands 

Help me watch him that he blossoms 

Let him never be useless as an adult 

Ba mi wo o l'awoye 
K'o ma se da po mo egbekegbe 
Omo eyi ti o fi fun mi o
K'o ma se j'iya ofo l'aye o 
K'o ma se baje mo mi l'owo 
Ba mi wo o l'awoye 
K'o ma se j'iya ofo l'aye o

Help me watch him well 

Let him not mix with bad company 

This child you have given me 

Let him not suffer pointlessly in this life 

Let him not spoil in my lifetime 

Help me watch him to prosper 

Let him not suffer needlessly in life. 

Ba mi wo o l'awoye
Ba mi wo o l'awoye 
Ba mi wo o, wo o, wo o l'awoye
Omo eyi ti o fi fun mi o 
K'o ma se ba mi l'oruko je
Omo eyi ti o fi fun mi o 
K'o ma se d'agbaya l'aye oBa mi wo o, wo o, wo o l'awoye

Ba mi wo o l'awoye
Ba mi wo o l'awoye 
Ba mi wo o, wo o, wo o l'awoye 
 wo o, wo o, wo o l'awoye 
 wo o, wo o, wo o l'awoye
